'Why? Why did this happen? I-I don't understand.' Fallon thought
She was running back to a place that she remembered and recognized: Zero's territory.
Zero saw her wiping the tears from her face despite more tears coming.
He was alert after seeing her upset.
"Did something happen?" Zero asked her
"It's too late. There's nothing I could do. Timothy. I-It's-"
"Wait, slow down and tell me what happened." Zero spoke calmly
"H-He doesn't care about me. He doesn't care about us. Why? Why did he choose Z?" Fallon sobbed
Zero sighed. He felt sorry for her but he wasn't exactly an expert in making people feel better. All he knew was how to listen and be truthful.
"Oh Fallon. I know it hurts but we must look forward. You're a good person and you're my friend so I really want to help you no matter what! We'll figure something out. I know we will."
"How could he abandon me like that? He prefers to listen to and join a psycho he met in a second? No! How could he?" She continued
Zero stayed silent and allowed her to vent.
"I swear I am going to break up with that stupid jerk wh-"
"Don't." Zero interrupted
"Don't? What do you mean don't?" She snapped
"I dunno why but I feel like deep down, he really does love you. He's just confused right now and that psycho pervy Z is toying with him and messing with his mind. Remember the effect that he had on us, Fallon. I became an increasingly violent and hateful person because of what he did to me. I couldn't even recognize myself anymore and that's when I freaked out."
"Then what?! What the hell are we going to do?!" She huffed in anger
"Oh Fallon. I am so proud of you. You're so strong and super. We're going to take him back before Z's corruption fully holds. Z calls it a transformation doesn't he? Knowing him, it probably involves a ritual of some kind." Zero spoke
"Zero. Tell me one thing. How do you stay so calm when everything's falling apart? I-I wish that I could be the same way. You're so cool!"
Zero gave her a gentle smile. He felt glad that she didn't find his stoic-ness off putting or too cold.
"Everyone has emotions. Even me. It's natural. But when there's a problem waiting to be solved, put the emotions to one side for a bit. When it is solved, allow yourself to rejoice to your heart's content! This is not easy. Even for me." Zero explained
Just before they were going to go, they noticed Blondie again. The toddler was standing still, keeping her arms in the air.
"What's wrong Blondie?" Fallon asked
"I think she wants to be picked up." Zero said
Fallon crouched down slightly and picked her up, placing her on her shoulders where she hung on tightly.
She gasped in shock after feeling something drip down her neck.
"What's wrong, Fallon? Oh wait! Shit, there's blood near your ear." Zero's eyes widened
"Huh? Oh no! Is she hurt? Oh my god!" She panicked, putting Blondie down onto the ground
She lifted up her light blue dress and noticed something near her navel.
"Oh god! N-No way. Zero. Look at this! Why doesn't she cry? Who did this to her?" She asked
Zero rushed to her side to have a look.
Her belly was marked with triangular geometrical shapes. Her wounds looked fresh and she was slowly bleeding.
Zero was overcome with worry and rage as he shook Blondie about.
"Who did this to you, Blondie?! Tell me who did this! Speak! Speak!" Zero's voice boomed out in rage
Blondie pressed her arms against her chest and turned her head down and to the side because she was afraid.
"Zero. Please calm down. She's just a baby. Don't frighten her."
"O-Oh right. I am sorry. But this is awful! I must find the sadistic bastard who hurt her!" He grit his teeth
"T-T-Tea." Blondie spoke for the first time
"Oh wow! She's trying to speak! This is incredible!" Fallon said
"He.." Blondie continued
"He? He what? Who?" Zero asked softly, not wanting to frighten her again
"Timothy." Blondie spoke
Fallon gasped, her knees wobbled as she stumbled onto the ground in despair.
Her mind was running rampant with all sorts of conclusions as to what really happened and what Blondie was trying to tell her. She was hoping that Timothy wouldn't go so far as to torture a small innocent child for the sake of his goals. Why was Timothy the first word that came out of Blondie's mouth?
"Timothy? Yeah we know him." Zero replied
"Timothy is not with us." Blondie spoke softly
"What do you mean he's not with us?" She asked, holding back her tears
"I-I can't find him." Blondie said
"Fallon. Check his star! I'll give you my goggles." Zero spoke
And so, she tried them on and searched all over for his star.
"No! I-It's vanished! I-I can't believe it. I can't! Zero!"
Zero focused his attention on Fallon.
"Please tell me. Tell me that he isn't dead!"
"Pass me the goggles. I'll check." Zero said
He checked and then he stayed silent, staring at the sky.
"Zero! Please say something!" Fallon pleaded
"I-It's not there anymore Fallon! I-I am so sorry!" He spoke, on the verge of tears
Fallon broke down into tears.
Zero also cried silently, holding her in his arms.
Blondie also joined in and they stayed there all holding each other trying to cope with the grief.
Zero felt like he'd known him for years, seeing his beloved sister through him.
Zero rubbed her back ever so gently, trying to soothe her pain. She was ok with it.
"Fallon. I am sorry but I need to do something important but I promise you that I'll be back in about 20 minutes or so. Please rest in my hammock if you need to and stay put." Zero said
"W-Wait. Where are you going? Please don't leave me!" Fallon pleaded
Zero placed a kiss on her forehead, let her go and then he beat his chest hard enough with his hand to return to reality. He had left his spear with her to defend herself with.
Zero vanished.

The more that one avoids sin, the more difficult the inner battle which they face. It is an endless and painful tug-of-war. Should one even bother to worry about sinning and choose to listen to their whims instead? Should one throw themselves into chaos and abandon order? The darkness of this chaos will devour them and they will allow themselves to be devoured. Total surrender - the ultimate ecstasy! They are not afraid of the darkness because they do not fear that which they do not yet perceive. These qualities make for the explorers of the furthest regions of the internal realm of chaos. The abyss!
Oh wait. What am I doing again?
I was supposed to look for a fire extinguisher to purchase. It's going to come in handy the next time my house decides to catch fire! To my carelessness, I was thinking about various important things as well as different types of winged creatures when my pan and stove caught on fire! Within seconds, the damned thing spread. Ha, you'd think that water would work? It just made it worse. Isn't water supposed to be the opposite of fire? Anyway, it's sorted now. Important advice: don't use water. You're better off smothering the raging flames with baking soda and if that's not possible, evacuate and make your call.
I often get stuck. I feel stuck and even the voice from inside won't cease its relentless calls for me to take action, but I cannot. In those moments, my burdens are piled up, weighing me down. Moments like this, I have learned to drag myself about, looking for a change of scenery. A change of scenery is desperately needed for that is my only salvation!
I searched up 'Might' and received some potentially bad news.
Three of my disguises have already been uncovered by the public.
It is huge news that 'Hector' is actually Might!
I can no longer carry out an investigation under that alias.
Thank you very much! Damn it! I wanted to stay anonymous.
To all of my fans, congratulations!
Before you celebrate, realise one thing: I am always several steps ahead of you all!
You won't catch me lacking. Ha!

Now back to the story.
Zero fulfilled his promise and returned to the realm of X in exactly 24 minutes.
He walked towards his place casually, completely unaware of what happened.
Fallon was on the ground, bruised everywhere except for her face. She was bleeding from her nose and her face was dampened with her tears.
Zero looked around for Blondie but she wasn't there. Checking her star, it was flickering. All this was already too much for him to process. He couldn't believe that this tragedy occurred in the short time he was gone.
"Fallon, can you hear me? Hey, you look terrible! Are you still alive?" He asked, feeling concerned
"They took her! They took Blondie! I tried to protect her." Fallon croaked, wiping the blood from her nose
"Who took her? What happened to you? Who did this to you?"
"Z a-and Y. Both of them attacked us and did much worse. There's no time! Please save her! She's just a baby!" Fallon pleaded
Zero could feel his anger building up.
"Z! I'll kill that old bastard!" Zero growled
"Count me in. Trust me, I want him dead too. Especially Z." She replied, slowly getting up
In the realm of X, healing rates are accelerated which is why Fallon went from not being able to move to slowly walking.
Fallon was walking alongside him in silence. She didn't feel like talking after what happened to her. Right now, the best strategy is to keep calm and stick together is what both of them thought.
They looked inside the first place they could think of. It was the most likely place: Y's lab.
They looked around and around but there was no sign of either of them: the trio or Timothy.
Each time they went through a door and hoped to find them, they weren't there.
When they opened the door with the crab symbol on it, a pink gas flooded their nostrils. Luckily it wasn't poisonous.
However, it made them see double and all of a sudden, the chequered floor moved up to the ceiling and they were upside down. Or at least, they appeared to be.
"Shit! We'll never find them." Zero said
"What happened to all that optimism of yours?" She laughed
There was a moment of silence until Zero had a eureka moment.
"I have an amazing idea Fallon!"
"What is it?"
"Let's roll around on the floor."
"Right. You've lost it."
"I'm serious. Let's do it. There's bound to be a hidden switch somewhere. Like in stories and video games."
"That's so predictable." Fallon said, rolling her eyes
However, they were desperate so they actually started rolling around the floor in opposite directions, being very careful not to crash into each other.
Meanwhile X and Y were having the time of their lives watching them on the camera screens.
"Look at them! Rolling around." X pointed out
Y burst out laughing making X laugh with him.
They changed the settings of the system to amplify the sounds picked up.
"Arrghhh!" Zero yelled out
"What the hell is wrong now?" Fallon asked, out of breath
"The switch just poked my ass!" Zero replied
Y snorted, then he laughed so hard that he fell out of his chair, making X howl with laughter. In a way, they were glad that Z was too busy to micromanage them and that they could just chill out like this.
"Fallon, roll over to me now."
Fallon immediately rolled over to him and the entire floor started shifting slowly and then it opened up to reveal a long slide. They slid down for what seemed like 2 to 3 minutes.
They were in an unusual place which looked like a hall. There were elaborate looking arches and a large pattern on the floor which depicted three snakes attempting to catch their own tails. On the walls were paintings of winged beings of light, generally referred to as 'light beings' or 'fairies' being devoured by a creature made of darkness with glowing eyes, nose and mouth shaped like a Jack-o'-lantern.
"Oh shit. They're getting closer!" Y started to panic
"Set traps." X ordered
"We don't have any. Are you stupid or what?" Y replied
"No, you're stupid!" X retorted
"Just imagine the traps." X continued
"Bullshit." Y spoke
They continued to argue.
"You know your limited mindset is what makes you a loser." X told him
"I am not a loser. I am only being realistic." Y huffed
"Realistic? Being realistic only gets you utterly fucked here." X said
"I-It does?" Y skeptically raised an eyebrow
"Oh just shut up Y. Making everything weird all the time." X mumbled, lightly punching him in the chest, making Y laugh
Suddenly, the door was kicked open so hard that it came off its hinges.
"Lover boys. Stop messing about!"
"What the heck!" X shouted
"You scared us you-" Y started to say
Y's back was immediately pressed against the desk and his shirt gripped by an enraged Zero, making Y speechless.
"Where is Blondie? Where is Timothy?"
"I-It's too late. Now let go of me!" Y hissed
"Unhand him or you'll regret it!" X yelled
Suddenly, Zero held up his left hand to X and he was in a state of panic and shock when he saw a ball of fire coming out of his palm. Zero grit his teeth and was shaking, trying his best to contain his anger. X was too afraid to move.
"No way! He's got the 'thing'. He's got the 'thing'. Just like Z! How and why?" X spoke
"Tell me what you've done to Blondie or I'll incinerate him and make you watch!" Zero growled
"OK OK OK I'LL TELL YOUUUU." X yelled out both afraid and annoyed
"Z and Timothy. They strapped her down comfortably and ran a couple tests on her. That's it! They wanted to find out why she had no burdens and more about her origins."
"I am not buying that. What about the geometrical carvings on her stomach huh?" Zero asked
"Z needed some of her-" Y started then immediately stopped
"Speak." Zero commanded, causing Y to shiver before continuing to confess.
"I-It was an offering..a form of nourishment which strengthened the portal! The essence of an innocent burdenless being can become an offering. The mark of sacrifice in order to complete the great transformation. Especially a transformation of Timothy's scale! I know it's messed up but we don't know anything beyond that!"
Zero felt immediate disgust but maintained his composure. He let go of him.
"What portal? What are they trying to access?"
"We'll give you some advice ok. I don't like Timothy or Z. If you hurry and make it on time, you'll catch Timothy before he enters the portal. The portal is composed of living beings of light and the portal is in constant movement to function. It needs nourishment and time. The target and the sacrifice have to be near the portal at all times. One by one, it will collect their essence, combine them and create the secret ingredients which will lead to the output: the transformed being."
"What the hell is all that garbage? Wasn't he after optimal pleasure?"
"It's impossible for anyone to find the optimal pleasure that Timothy is seeking. Z knows this which is why he's chosen this route for him. Whether he comes out alive after that however, that's the real question." X spoke haughtily
"Tell me where to go." Zero asked Y
"Don't tell him." X said to Y
"Pass the pillar of arches next to the hallway and keep walking and going to the left. The portal is noisy because the air surrounding it is being ripped apart. Follow that sound which should appear as soon as you are crossing the bridge. The temperature will get really hot and then drop down to 26.6°F then follow the sound and it should stabilise."
"Y! Why did you tell him?" X asked him
"I saw a very terrifying outcome so I did what I had to do." Y replied
X sighed.
Immediately, Zero rushed out of the room and met up with Fallon who was nearby and they followed Y's instructions to the utmost, choosing to not worry about if they were being misled. This is because the situation was dire. They had to get Blondie to safety and also stop Timothy from being lost forever.
However, what they didn't tell Zero was how dangerous and shaky the wooden bridge was and the fact that there were giant spikes instead of water. They struggled immensely but managed to make it through to the other side.
"What is all this immense pressure?"
"That immense roaring! It can only be the portal." Fallon replied
"Let's hurry and follow that sound." Zero said
They felt the fluctuating temperature but continued on.
Then they finally found it.
"Timothy!" Fallon yelled out, running towards him
But something was wrong.
For he had turned into smoke as soon as she touched him.
There was no sign of Blondie, Z or Timothy.
"No! We were too late!" Zero spoke in despair
They didn't make it on time, for Timothy had already entered the portal.
Timothy was not actually dead, however, the world of X didn't recognise his status so it had pronounced him dead when this was further from the truth.
This is an account from Timothy himself: everything was dark and I was afraid to keep on walking. Then I saw something. I was inside a hallway made of mirrors and within it was a mirror maze. It took me a while to get to the exit and halfway there I was being chased by black smoke. I kept on running away from the smoke. Once I made it to the exit, my heart leaped out in shock when I fell down and got swallowed up by the ground which came to life all of a sudden. I was sinking deeper and deeper and I began to think with tears in my eyes that this was the end.
I was having even worse memory gaps and moments where I had no conscious awareness of my body. I became surrounded by floating things. The wonderfully colourful distortions and mergings. So much symmetry and geometry! Even if I tried to, I couldn't describe them to you!
And then, a giant net enclosed itself onto me and I struggled and struggled until I couldn't no more. Then a bright light coming from an opened violet door embraced me, and then a hand which pulled me inside! The bright light had shone through the plume of smoke which was light pink in colour. Then I arrived at one single thought: 'oh great one!' for I was so grateful to be alive!
I went through the other side of the door and the sky was reddish orange like it was on fire. I saw a group of silhouettes armed with giant sticks which looked like clubs but less fat. They were charging at each other and beating each other up with it. It was a battle royale of chaos! The more distressed I became, the more ruthless they got.
And then, my heart just stopped and I couldn't do anything. I accepted it. I was having a peaceful dream. No more delusion, Timmy!
Then I saw him.
A young man who looked exactly like me but his hair looked darker than mine. It was so bizarre! I felt like I was looking at my reflection, only it was real life! Real life! We were floating in mid-air or should I say mid-space since it looked like outer space around me. He drifted closer to me and then I noticed his hands on my shoulders. I wanted to ask him, 'who are you?' but I didn't need to. I don't know why but I found myself extending my arms to the side and then I was tilted back by him. Doing the same thing as me, our hands locked together and even our heart beats gradually began to synchronise. I could feel the weight of him against me and his body heat. How strange! In X, it's difficult to accurately sense temperature. It's always ambiguous. And then, we merged in such a sensual manner. It was odd and it made me remember the merging objects that I saw earlier, floating around. Then it came. The peaceful quiet and clarity of my mind. My body, soul and mind aligned and made hyper-aware! I could feel everything as if I was simultaneously connected to everything but connected to nothing. Time itself began to melt away and whether minutes or hours have passed was all a mystery. I was overcome with all the feelings and he held me even closer. He was expecting me to offer myself to him at that moment but I held back. I held his face and gave him a look which he interpreted correctly. "I won't be losing myself to this. I refuse." - Did I openly say this or not? It didn't matter because he recognized it. Whoever he was, he was a mind reader. Then I heard his voice for the first time.
This was the voice of somebody so confident, so sure of himself but every sound coming from him, I felt it deeply. As if it was a significant inner voice.
"I am what you are missing. You will walk out of here, complete."
"What do you mean?" I asked him
"Do you want this, Timothy?" He asked me
Before I could answer, I saw two terrifying looking men who were armed from top to bottom.
The young man looked at them and let out a haughty chuckle. As soon as they charged at him, he jumped and sped-walked backwards making the two attackers laugh. Then as soon as I blinked, I saw ten large stakes made of rock lodged deep inside their backs and then THUD!!
The attackers instantly fell down to the ground, bleeding out from their wounded backs.
I couldn't believe what I saw!
I asked him about what he did but he called it a thing. This left me confused so I left it alone. However, I didn't forget what I went through the portal for but before I could tell him, he looked at me and told me, "I know what you want."
"You do?" I raised an eyebrow, but I could tell that he had no time to play games
"We will begin very shortly." He told me
I noticed someone who was floating quickly towards us.
It was Blondie!
"Blondie? I thought you died." He spoke, surprised
She looked at him all confused but stood floating nearby. She was the only one on top of a fluffy white cloud.
"You know her?" I asked him
"Of course I know her. She's Fallon's daughter."
"WHAT?!" Timothy reacted in surprise
"Anyway, she is the essential ingredient that you require."
"What?" Timothy repeated himself
"Oh don't play dumb with me you imbecile! Close your eyes."
"Why?"
"What do you mean why? You wanted optimal pleasure. Now you'll get it. Now do as I say!"
"Very well, but before that, I want answers." Timothy replied
"Of course, provided that you go through with this. It was destined."
******
I am Might and I still don't know exactly what happened to Timothy after that but this experience of optimal pleasure triggered a transformation from him without a doubt! Z was right. He wasn't bluffing. The other man seemed to have disappeared and now Timothy managed to figure out a way to exit the portal using Blondie to guide him. She was all too familiar with the portal which is another strange thing about her that I don't understand. Blondie decided to go elsewhere.
Fallon was the first person to spot him. She was with Zero.
"Timothy? Is that really you?" She asked him
He stood a little taller, his hair was very black and was parted in two instead of it being brunette and combed back. He wore a glittery dark red shirt, a shiny black leather jacket, black jeans and dark red pvc combat boots. He was walking like he had something important to do. His gestures and mannerisms were surprisingly bold. After all, there was one undeniable thought that this brought to one's mind: he took up space ever so proudly with his presence!
"Yes Fallon, I am here." He replied calmly, gently rubbing her arm
But, he wasn't feeling calm at all. He was here to settle something which is why he quickly paid attention to Zero.
"Zero. I know all your secrets!" Timothy's voice boomed out confidently
Fallon was taken aback but she couldn't help but pay attention to him.
"What do you mean?" Zero asked him
"So you won't be honest huh? Do you want me to reveal..project tangerine!!"
"Zero. What is that? What is he saying? Tell us!" Fallon said
"I don't know! He's chatting a bunch of shit!" Zero yelled out, losing his cool
"PROJECT TANGERINE! AND I KNOW ABOUT BLONDIE!"
"Look boy. Whatever Z told you, it's a fucking lie!" Zero yelled
"Defensive much." Timothy scoffed
"And you should've told me!" Timothy pointed at Fallon
"About what! Why are we yelling?" Fallon yelled back
"Blondie is YOUR daughter." Timothy revealed
"What?!" Fallon replied
"And YOURS too, Zero!" Timothy added
"That is bullshit! I never- I didn't do shit with Fallon. I swear I never touched her, I-" Zero replied
"Exactly! If I actually had a child, then surely I would've remembered it, you fool." Fallon said
"Shut up! I have the receipts." Timothy commanded, showing the the proof
"T-That's fabricated." They responded simultaneously
He began to laugh uncontrollably until his ribs hurt and then he became silent.
"I don't give a fuck. So Zero? Tell me your secret." Timothy demanded
"Did you find optimal pleasure?" Zero asked him
"You bastard..Yes I found it and experienced it. It was unlike anything that I've ever experienced before. I thought I was going crazy. I don't remember why but I kept laughing. I was made to observe it all and it was downright laughable! I thought, fuckin' hell Blondie what the hell did you do to me?"
"If I find out that you harmed her in any way, I'll make you regret it!" Zero replied but Timothy laughed at him
"I think she killed me! That silly little brat killed me! I wonder if she has the balls to kill me again." Timothy continued
"Alright stop messing around, you just want to provoke me isn't it?" Zero said
"If I wanted to provoke you, I would've taken Blondie to you after I crushed her windpipe. She is no use to me anymore."
"Take that back."
"Why? Are you her father after all? And Fallon's her mother."
"You stupid fool!"
"Do you know what I told her before we started? Her energy sphere was growing and growing and so was my enthusiasm." He chuckled
"You bastard!"
"Take me to the highest level!" He yelled out dramatically
"You make me sick!" Zero yelled out, charging at him
Timothy just managed to escape Zero's raging flames by enclosing himself in a hollow stone sphere that he created. Now he had a 'thing' too. Then, he let the protective sphere crumble. Now they were fighting very seriously.
"Zero."
"What?" Zero hissed
"Make me feel good!" Timothy said then giggled maniacally
Then Timothy was met with a tornado of fire and air and Timothy was blown away but he managed to protect his vital areas. He was all bloody and his skin was peeling away but in the world of X where healing rates were accelerated, he was healing rapidly. They continued to fight. It was a tremendous battle of fire+air against earth. Of course, Timothy was bluffing when he was referring to project tangerine but it was clear from Zero's reaction that he was hiding something big. It was too dangerous for Fallon to get in between their fight so she didn't even bother. She sensed that Timothy was upset about something and was deliberately taking it out on Zero. She then began to realise Timothy's struggle: the struggle for power. He was attracted to grand things and was very ambitious. At the start, this is one of the qualities which attract her. Timothy was never a person to allow himself to become led or corrupted by anyone. He was a man who saw himself before everyone else. In his mind, even the emperor couldn't be above him. He was proud of his personality. A proud and ambitious nerd. That was Timothy's most attractive quality other than his good looks.
Timothy was beginning to overwhelm him and once Zero was knocked over, crushed, bloody and unable to move, he approached him slowly just casually taking his time. Zero looked up at Timothy walking towards him and glared at him. Now Timothy had stood over him, staring at him with that signature look of his: a face that had, 'I am looking down on you, worthless worm.' written all over it.
"You're a terrible friend." Timothy sighed, dropping the floating large rock spike that he had previously aimed at Zero's chest
"Is that why you were saying all these things to provoke me?" Zero chuckled then let out a cough
"Fallon! Come here." Timothy called her
She ignored him and with good reasons.
"Please!" Timothy added
"That's much better." She smirked, walking towards him
"You two are so funny! I like you so I'll be honest and tell you what I was hiding. All I ask is that you cope with this appropriately." Zero said
They stayed silent to hear him out.
"Who did you suspect Z's true identity to be?" Zero asked him
"I have one person in mind but I am not sure. Surely he isn't." Timothy took a step back
"Say it." Zero encouraged him
"I-Is Z actually Might?" Timothy stuttered
"You think that Z is Might? I don't blame you but really think about what you are trying to say." Zero replied
"I asked him that but he laughed at me." Timothy revealed
"Now do you think that the real Might would just laugh at someone like that?" Zero asked him
"Um-yes I think he would." Timothy replied
"Yeah yeah you're right. He would!" Zero laughed
"Wait. You fucking bastard!" Fallon laughed
Zero and Timothy looked at her confused but amused.
She let out dramatically loud laughter and slapped her palm against her forehead.
"You're Might! The real Might! You fucking lying son of a bitch! It's you!" She accused him
"W-Wait-"
"I am so mad right now." She laughed
"Is that really true, Zero? Are you Might?"
"Yes! I am Might!" Zero revealed, standing up in a proud stance with his left hand against his chest
"So cool." Timothy whispered
"So now you know. Now what will you do? Abandon me? Get me locked up? Alert the emperor?"
"I can't believe that I actually met you."
"Now this feels weird and you wonder why I didn't want you all to know."
"Oh you really are serious aren't you Zero? Wow. I wasn't expecting this." Fallon said
"Nothing's changed. Whether you are Zero or Might, these are only names. What is in a name anyways? All those experiences, feelings and memories we shared matter more! And what's more? After our fight, the vast majority of the Burdens that were on you have been released. Anyway, we're friends aren't we? Then I won't tell anyone about this." Timothy said
"Timothy. You really are a good person. That's why I want to make you an offer. To help you." Zero smiled
"No I am not as good as you think I am. Me and Z, we did some unforgivable things. Knowing how you feel about things morally, I think you'll hate me." Timothy replied
"Try me. I am Might after all." He chuckled
TO BE CONTINUED...THE SCENE BEGINS AT MY OWN HOME.
